VIVE BOULANGER.
The Demonstration at Paris Begun
Soon After Midnight.

PARIS, July IA, l A. M.-The Boulanger
demonstration has already begun. Thou
sands are following through the main streets,
a couple of vans and few carriages con-
tanning a band which is playing alternately
the "Marseilleise' and Boulanger march
"En Revenant de la Revue" the crowd
joining in the chorus and Justify shouting,
"Vive Boulanger, II Reviendra," "Demis-
slon," etc.
The people appear generally to be good
tempered, but hostile demonstrations are
made against houses that are not decorated
There are numerous outdoor balls, and torch
light professions are to be seen everywhere.
The air is filled with cries of "Vive Bou-
langer"
The city is full of rumors about the steps
that are to be taken by the authorities to
suppress the demonstration 1t is said that
police and picked troops will be placed be
tween the army and public on the review
ground, and that nobody will be allowed to
enter the long champs enclosure or
avenues encircling it unless provided with
a war office ticket and police pass. The
temper of the people appears less sullen, but
they seem to be determined to show their
love for Gen. Boulanger and their hatred
of those who removed him from the War
Office. Radical journals entreat Parisians
to remain cool and reserve their heat for a
future suitable occasion. The Journal deS
DebdtS urges the government to take sharp
measures to nip in the bud any attempt at a
demonstration

TARIFF PERPLEXITIES.
A st. Louis Paper Gets the Views of
Democratic Leaders.

ST LOUIS, July 13.-The Republican
will publish tomorrow a number Of letters
from leading Democratic Congressman who
have been conspicuous In connection with
finance and the tariff. The letters are in
answer to series of interrogatories re-
Gently sent them by the Republican. These
are:
l. Is there a practical basis of compro-
mise through which the Democrats in the
House can unitea
.. Would an equal cut of the internal and
tariff taxes afford such basiss
3. Assuming this acceptable, is it feasible
To carry the element of compromise into the
selection of a tariff scheduled
4. Are there concessions of any other kind
the ma jority of the party can offer without
sacrifice of principles
D. Would u caucus further the accomplish
ment of the desired endl
CARLIsLE's VIEWS.
Speaker Carlisle says in his opinion the
revenue will be reduced at the next session.
The necessity Of immediate reduction of the
revenue in order to prevent a large accumu-
lation is SO apparent that Congress cannot
afford to further delay consideration of this
question. There will be differences of opin
ion, but these can be reconciled on some
basis which will secure substantial relief.
Benton McMillen, of Tennessee, says an
equal or nearly equal cut of the internal
and tariff taxes would afford basis of
compromise He favored repeal of oppres-
sive internal taxes, and believed that the
tariff on necessities should be reduced.
Representative Breckenridge, of Ken
lucky, is in favor of real revision of the
tariff and increase of the free list by placing
thereon raw materials and necessaries, as
the revenue must be reduced.
RANDALLs REASONING.
Ex-Speaker Randall believed that com
promise could be effected by fair and just
revision of the present tariff. He did not
entertain feeling of vengeance against the
producers in this country, because they are
enjoying a season of prosperity.
He preferred their welfare to
ing the internal revenue system.
He did not believe an equal cut in internal
and tariff taxes would do. He did not be
lieve i'll free trade, and did not think the
advocates Of that policy would dare to carry
it out He found that the loudest advocates
of this policy demanded the greatest protec-
tion for the products of their districts.
BASIS FOR COMPROMISE
S. S. Cox, of New York, believed there
was a basis for compromise He knew of
several measures which will facilitate the
collection of customs duties to which no oh
lection could be raised from any party
Their advocacy involved no sacrifice of
principle. He thought a caucus necessary
TO accomplish harmonious end.
Representative Collins, of Massachusetts,
thought a compromise possible.
George d. Wise, of Virginia, and j. =.
Henderson, of North Carolina, strongly ad-
vocated repeal Of the internal taxes, espec-
iallY ON tobacco,

A SOUTH CAROLINA ROMANCE.
Disappointment in Love Followed by
Marriage to Negress.


COLUMBIA, S. c., July 13.-A special
from Sumter, S. c., reports the death in
that county last Saturday of Col William
j. Reynolds in the 10Th year Of his age.
Col. Reynolds, fifty-five years ago, was one
of the most promising young men in the
State and was noted for his industry, integ-
rity and active interest in military affairs.
He fell deeply in love with beautiful young
girl, belonging to one OF the first families in
Claremont county and sued for her hand
He seemed to be favorably regarded
by the girl herself, but her parents
had more ambitious views for her
and would not allow her to marry
him. Nothing daunted the young man
went to work to win a name and position
which would render him more acceptable TO
her parents. He was elected to represent
his county in the State Legislature, served
one term with credit and distinction, and
returning to his home made another effort
to secure the hand of the girl to whom he
was attached. He was again refused, but
after he had been elected the third time
representative over prominent and wealthy
competitors the opposition to him was APP
parently senced. The young woman
promised to be his wife, and all the prepara-
tions were made for the wedding. At
the last moment, however, she wrote
him note saying that she had yielded
TO the wishes Of her mother and must de-
cline to fulfil her engagement This broke
up Col Reynolds life and career. After
broodIng long time over his disappoint-
ment he took for a wife a negro girl, who
had been his slave, and lived with her TO the
last, regardless Of public opinion and of the
entreaties of his relations. He reared a
large family of children and drew up him
self a will providing for them all and
putting them ON an equality with his own
nearest relatives. He left an estate consist
ing of some thousands of dollars in money
and 1000 acres Of land, and it is thought the
validity of the will will be sustained.
